Lovely room with a lovely gentleman at the front desk. The area is very peaceful, with Boyana Church only a few minutes walk away. Great dining options nearby as well. Highly recommend.

It was a wonderful stay. The hotel owners are friendly, hospitable, and helpful in every way. It has a warm atmosphere. The room is clean, and trash is collected daily. Items that are used up are replaced. The hotel is located in the Boya Forest, with a wonderful view. Bus stops are very close, making it easy to get to everywhere. Boyana holds a lot of history, and the trekking areas are magnificent.

Lovely little family run hotel. Very close to Boyana Church. There are a few parking places in the rear. No AC so be prepared if going in the summer. Quiet location. Helpful owner gave us directions to nearby restaurants.

That is the second time we stay in this property. It is small family run hotel with a reasonable price and proper facilities. The owner is quite friendly and made our check in as soon smooth as possible.
I have chosen this place not just because its price and the conditions of the facility but because Boyana is my preferred district in Sofia, too. You can easily park your car right in front of the hotel or to the property owned parking right behind the hotel, you walk to Boyana Church which is a World Heritage site and enjoy the frsh and crisp mountain air.
Besides, if you have time, you can easily have a walk both in the Vitosha park and on the top of Vitosha mountain which offers you a great view of the city of Sofia.
Lastly, you can drive anywhere in the city in less than 30 minutes and there are countless numbers of restaurants serving both local and international cuisine.

The property was clean and serviceable but extremely dated and tired. The hotel receptionist was very helpful but we failed to see how this could be a 4star rated hotel.

Es war sehr angenehm und sauber.
Das Zimmer war mehr als ausreichend groß genug.
Leider wurden wir im gegenüberliegenden Restaurant
Boyanska Hanche betrogen.
Diese Lokal kann man nicht empfehlen.

L'Hotel est situé dans un environnement magnifique, plusieurs bons restaurants sont situés à quelques minutes de marche, mais ce qui est le plus important est le gérant de l’hôtel et tout son personnel, à l'écoute de tous vos besoins. À conseiller fortement !

Nice room and location
The owner is helpful. It is easily accessed by public tranportation, just next to bus station. 3 mins walk to Boyana Church that you can early visit before loads of tour groups.
